Mutlimedia help required for producing Family events CD_ROM magazine

25 Jan 2007

Hi,

Each year the Buddhist families come to Amaravati and we produce a Magazine called rainbows (more details here).

Last year we produced a CD with all the old Magazines Scanned in.

I am thinking about this year producing it as mutli-media CD.
This would be designed, thought by the children, young people and parents over the Bank Holiday Weekend in May.
If you have any skills and more importantly the software to do such a think… please

Thanks
Samanera Amaranatho

Temple Building Closed

11 Dec 2006

The Temple building is now closed for repair work to the underfloor heating. We hope that the work will be completed by Spring 2007. Activities usually held in the Temple are temporarily relocated to other parts of the monastery – apologies for any inconvenience.

After extensive investigation and discussion with architects, engineers and builders a scheme has been drawn up to replace the heating system in the Temple. The new heating system will comprise new underfloor heating in the main hall itself, with radiators in the smaller rooms. Other methods of heating were explored but discounted because they would not perform satisfactorily in this building.
